Well done @amiruci and @basetenco team!
We closed our series D at $2.1b. It happened 8 months after our series C, which seems too fast until you consider the facts: 2-years worth of growth in 8 months, virtually 0 customer churn, healthy margins, and QoQ NDR numbers that are considered top-tier YoY. The market demand…

Excited to announce our investment in Hostie, joined by @thethomaslayton (Former Opentable CEO) and ex Yelp leaders (@newmike). They're the leading restaurant AI solution used by Flour + Water, Chotto Matte, Nisei, Harborview, and Fiorella.

Every instrument is doubted at first. Unrefined. Incomplete. Unwelcome. It takes great artists to harness these tools—to push creativity forward. Today, we’re launching our instrument: FUZZ-1.0 . We’re inviting you to be the first to play it.
New Episode of Ignite VC just dropped — and it’s a masterclass in timing, traction, and AI transformation. What do Yelp, Stitcher, and a $750M food delivery business have in common? - @newmike helped build them. Now a General Partner at @BurstCapital, Mike joins us to break…
